It's all the little things

Still mostly coasting by on post-comedy glee, but people in RL seem to be determined to make me lose my cool. So, in list form, things that have annoyed me, in attempt to cast them out of my brain:
1) My housemate's girlfriend has once again decided to have a house party at ours. Without asking any of us for permission. On a Sunday. When I have to either be in work the next day to perform one of the final big experiments for my PhD, or go to Warwick to perform a big experiment for my PhD that might have a large impact on my future career. So yeah, not a night for parties.
2) Said houseparty will be the night of the BUSA individual foil. I will be too cream-crackered for both it and the social it is following.
3) Re - said social. Logically, I know why it's there, because it's the best day for a Christmas social, but practically. I'm fencing, for the glory of the university, in Nottingham. If we're very lucky we will leave at four, if we're unlucky by 2. Either way, we've got to get from Nottingham, to Leicester (~30 mins), get back to our houses, showered, dressed and made up (despite living with three other people, plus attendent girlfriend) and back to Oadby by 6. Not going to happen.
4) Dan made me ref sabre on Saturday. This being after I volunteered to do foil and epee. The man has no heart ;) Actually, I didn't mind so much, except I then got it in the neck from one of the female epeeists who were doing sabre for a giggle. No, you stupid woman, you don't understand priority or sabre and you were wrong, and I no have it from three grade 3 qualified refs that you were wrong.
5) Also, my tonsils hurt.
